    I've seen people extend the standard flares by running a strip of aluminium between the flare and the guard.

    Little hard to explain but if you can imagine buying some 30mm wide (for example) 2mm thick alu strap bending it to match the wheel arch and inserting it as a spacer between the flare and the actual guard you'll get the idea.

    Les Richmond Automotive have just developed an extension for the Defender Flares.
